Stein, Gertrude, 1874-1946

"Matisse Picasso and Gertrude Stein With Two Shorter Stories"

Any heroism is hard
limited and any line is fabulous, and the church any church is taken
when there are windows and a winter waiting, any likelihood shows that
red.
A lake, springing into a waggon and having wheels totter and having all
the water suffer, this is obliging.
Fancy a cylinder, fancy it in a letter, does that show slouching.
Sweep and settle, circulate and rejoice, reject a morsel and suffer
suffer lightly and in a measure.
Search a hindrance, see obligations resemble china, see no more tunes
and no more harshness and hardly any virgin.
Climb and dine and shine and show a shadow a single tiny blessing, a
decanter, show it in swimming, show it in a pudding, show it in an
aquarium, show it as it is sudden.
Dating a gently soft boiled egg that is boiling does not mean that there
is any hurry or that there is any comparison. Dating it is momentary and
a schedule and it has that sobriety, it has that, it certainly can
devise ways of encouraging more things than have been collected. It
certainly will.
A lameness is no structure, that is enthusiasm, that is liberty and that
too that is a chance.
Labor which is rapid is so silent that there are pins. Is this straight
in summer, it is in winter, it is charming in winter, it is choice in
summer, why is there caution, why is there a chapter.
Pointing in the direction which makes pets and pillows and a flight and
an interval and even more, pointing that way makes a negro say that a
negro has color and is not a stranger, it makes him say out right what
there is to see in lamp light and in a faded china cover and even in a
little bit of carpet.
